Homemade Milk Buns : super soft, fluffy,easy and testy

      when we were in Barcelona. We went to visit our family in Zamora ,Spain. Every morning Aliss would eat milk buns for breakfast, she really like soft bread with butter as same as her granduncle. In Spanish we call Buns de leche. So every times when we travel in Spain I always carry the packets of buns de leche.

One-day Aliss asked me, mommy can you make buns de leche for me? Of course I said YES immediately. I have no scale because our apartment in Barcelona only have basic kitchen stuffs. we plan to stay there only 3 months. I only have measuring cups and intention.

Other one reason that I like to make bread at home is fresh bread is substantially tastier than store-purchased bread....Let's get start

Ingredients

1 +1/3 cup All Purpose Flour or Wheat Flour or Plain Flour

1/4 Cake Flour

1/2 cup Malted Butter

1/2 cup Milk

1 large Egg

2 tsp Active dry Yeast

1/4 tsp Salt

4 tsp Brown sugar

Method

1.Malt the butter in the microwave , Pour cold milk in the malted butter and sugar , salt and egg ,mix well and then add yeast mix again, set aside

2.Pour the wet ingredients into dry ingredients mix well, Cover the dough and let it rise for 1-2 hours , or until it's nearly double in side

3.Time to knead the dough, you can knead the dough by hand or mixer or bread machine to make the dough soft ,smooth dough, cover with lightly oiled clear film and leave to rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes.

After 30 minutes

(by hand: I suggest to wear plastic gloves and apply some oil on the gloves when you knead the dough until soft and smooth. It takes around 10-15 minutes)

4.Divide the dough into 12 pieces. Shape each piece into a round ball. Cover them by towel and let them rise in a warm place for 10 minutes.

5.Flatten the balls and roll into 3-4 inch logs. Line a baking sheet parchment paper. Place the buns onto the paper, leaving enough room in between each dough to have a place to go while it's rising. Cover and let them rise about 30 minutes.

after let them rise 30 minutes

6.Preheated the oven to 180C or 356F. When the buns have risen, gently brush egg wash generously onto each buns.

7.Cut 3 diagonal slits on top of the buns but not too deep. Then bake the buns for 12-14 minutes or until golden brown, remove them from the oven. Cool the buns on the rack.

So soft and fluffy

Enjoy your baking......
